One of the more challenging issues facing Southern Baptists today is same-sex marriage. Churches need to protect themselves legally while showing proper Biblical grace toward the LGBT community. Read Dr. Chitwood’s response to the recent Supreme Court ruling that legalized same-sex marriage in America.
To assist churches, we have created a marriage resource page on our Kentucky Baptist Convention website that includes the following:
- Videos from Protecting Biblical Marriage conference held May 22, 2014
- Sample Marriage/Wedding policies and guidelines
- Sample Facility Use policies
- Videos by Richard Nelson, executive director of the Commonwealth Policy Center
